THE FUTURE OF OUR BOYS.
Baltimore american.

buutHOTe American
Mr.. Noah Brooks, whom all boys
will recognize as one of their best
friends, and rs one of the most inter
esting writer's for the young people of
this country, comments IN fOrclble
way on "a question of ever pressing i'm
pOrtance in the current Issue of The
Epoch. 1t is, "What shall be done
with our boys?" He finds the learned
professions full, and many avenues of
work either crowded or closed. The
sea, which formerly gave occupation
To thousands of brave American boys,
is now sailed by vessels manned by
foreigners. The employments once
wholly filled by male youth are now
largely occupied by women. These
include clerical positions, private sec
retaryships, and the like. 1t is true
that the new order of things makes
competition sharper, and gives boys
fewer chances but this country is so
large, and its interests and demands so
multitariOus, that there is always
something for every one to do. 1t
stands to reason that all boys cannot
achieve wealth and fame but rs the
years go by the proportion of the for
tunate ones will constantly grow larg
er. What is needed more than any
thing else to add to the usefulness and
honor of coming generations is high
er aud fuller appreciation of the digni-
ty of labor.
We have in mind the experience of
Maryland boy who was left several
thousand dollars by his father. He
did not squander it, as many boys
would have done, but he determined to
spend it all, and he did it i'm such Il
way that it became the very best in
vestment that he could have made
lie went into one of the railway shops
of the city ut normal wages, and paid
the rest of his expenses out of his little
fortune. He learned all he could in II
practical way there, and then entered
first class school of technology. By
the time he graduated his money was
all gone, but lac was able to earn his
own way. He kept on learning. and
the consequence was that he soon rose
to an excellent position, and to day he
is in receipt OF splendid salary, and
is considered one of the best men in
his profession in the country.
Mr.. Roberts, the wonderfully able and
astute president of the great Pennsyl-
vania railroad, started out as Il chain
carrier in surveying party. Mr..
Frank Thomson, the vice-president of
the same road, was an apprentice in
the Altoona shops. Mr.. Samuel Spen
Ger, of the b. Il o., and one OF the best
railroad men in the country, was a
clerk not many years ago at Camden
station. Instances innumerable could
be cited, and the moral of them all
would be To learn "A trade, and to trust
to industry and application for promo
ton. The future of our boys is the tn
ture of our country. We have not the
slightest doubt that il will be- brilliant
and substantial but the individual
cases of marked success must always
depend upon the capacity and industry
Of the individuals. Boys who look up
on life as "A serious problem, that must
be worked out, and not played out, are
able To take care of themselves. The
idlers, who expect To live of of money
which they do not earn, are the drOnes
in the great national hive of industry.

OF BUTTER
A. W. Cheeper ia, N. Il. Farmer.

l.
Writing of the dangers to butter
from sending it long distances reminds
us of an instance in our own expert
ence.
After the close of the exhibit of the
Vermont Dairymen's association at St.
JOhusbury last winter, we had strong
desire to test some of the dairies
further than was possible by simply
tasting from single lump or print
sent for examination and premium.
Finding butter in Quincy market from
some of the dairies which had taken
premiums at the exhibition we pur-
chased one cold day in February a
pound of freshly arrived print butter
from the lot of dairyman who took
one of the special prizes. Depending
upon the reputation of the butter max
er, and remembering the excellence of
the sample shown at the exhibition we
did not test it in the dealers stall, but
took it home done up in cheap paste
board box, such as are in daily use
now i'm all first-class butter markets.
The floor of the car being rather dirty,
instead of keeping the butter cool by
putting it there the package was laid
in one of the racks near the top. The
car was very hot, and in the ride of
nearly an hour the butter doubtless be-
came quite warm. The butter was not
unpacked that night, but remained III
the paste board box. The next morn
ing when it was placed on the break
fast table what was our surprise to
find it decidedly rancid. Returning to
the market that day an examination
was made of the nearly full package
from which the single pound had been
taken. On opening the box, which
contained twenty pounds OF more, Il
sweet, rosy aroma arose, such as al
ways delights butter dealer when
showing such goods. What does this
mean 7 1t is just possible that i'll the
box of fresh made butter were two
half-pOund prints of an earlier churn
ing which had spoiled before starting
for market, but we do not believe it,.
The chances are too small that both
prints should happen to go to the same
customer, and, besides, good butter
makers who have a reputation to keep
do not send old rancid butter with
that which is fresh. They can not at
ford to make any such experiments.
Our conclusion is that the excessive
heat and foul air of the crowded car
together with the contact for IL night
and part of two days with the straw
board of the packing box changed the
butter from sweet to rancid. If any
butter making reader can suggest a
more plausible theory we would he
glad TO hear it. Our advice to- butter
makers seeking il market has always
been To put up their butter i'll pack
ages of considerable size and never i'll
prints till the dealers have learned the
character of the dairy and asked to
have it so put up. Even pure air will
injure butter in short time.

The Glass of Nothing at All.

A man who himself graduated from
Harvard some years ago, reports that
his nine years old son is in trouble.
The lad has been told that he is to en-
ter college when he is Is, and he has
figured out that this will place him in
the class of 1900. He is accustomed to
hear his father speak of his class as
that of rs, and reasoning by analogy,
he has arrived at the conclusion that
his own will be the class of 700.
"And, papa" he says, "Of course no.
body would want to belong to the class
of nothing at all. Everybody will
make fun of fellow, and he never
will feel as if he amounted to anything.
If can't enter college when Pm IL, I'd
rather wait over IL year and go in '97,
for then at least I'll he in the class of
'0l."
The father laughs at the boy and
leases him, but he says the yOungster
has taken the matter so seriously to
heart that he is not sure whether even
the nine years of preparation that still
remain will drive the notion out of his
head. The dilemma is an amusing
one, and affords opportunity for curl
Gus speculation as to what title the
class of 1900 will take unto itself.
There seems, however, no very press
ing haste for the settlement of the
question.

Some Scraps from Harper's Drawer for

daughter of a clergyman who had TAX

goodness of the Supreme Being, SO that
she Should have in her mind always
His kindness and mercy rs we'll as

passing the open door of the room i'm
which the child was playing, saw Miss
Make standing on a chair before the
mirror, with IL her face close to it,
scrutinizing her little phiz with great
earnestness, and with Il long sigh she
remarked, | don't see how God could
have given me such a nose, when he

Ia the old town of H, in Yer

naming his children. In accordance
with this plan, No. l., IL boy, was nam

existence of No. 2 was shown by her

Archdeacon Kirby, in recent ac-
count of his lifelong experiences as Il

trcme difficulty of making them com

he gave a series of lessons on each of
the commandments separately to IL
class of young Alaskan braves. He
dwelt especially upon the principle in
vOlved in the sixth commandment, ex
planning TO them clearly what murder
meant, and what a dreadful crime it
was in the eyes of God and man. To

Northern Seed Potatoes.

A farmer in Greensboro, Maryland,
thinking to change his grade of pOta-
toes, barrelled all that Ire had, shipped
them to Baltimore and ordered few
barrels of extra fine Northern potatoes
for seed. While barrelling his own
tubers he lost his spectacles. When
he received his Northern seed potatoes
he found his missing spectacles in one
of the barrels. Such things destroy
confidence.

ANARCHYS HARD FIGHT,
PETITIONS FOR CLEMENCY TO BE
WIDELY CIRCULATED.

A Resolution Denunciatory of the Hi.
nois Supreme Court Decision to be
Introduced at the General Assembly
of the Knights of Labor-A Split
May Follow
CHICAGO, Sept 17.-Printed forms of a
petition to Gov. Oglesby, appealing for
communication of sentence for the condemned
Anarchists, have been gotten out and are
now being forwarded to all parts of the
country. The petition was drawn up by
Capt Black. 1t reads as follows:
To HIS Ercetlency Richard j. Oglesby, Governor
of the State of Illinois:
The undersigned, believing that any case in.
volving life, humanity and the State are better
served by mercy than by rigorous execution of
sentence, the justice of which is questioned by
many OF our people, respectfully but urgently
bespeak the exercise of the executive clemency
of your excellency in behalf of August Spies
Michael Schwab, Oscar Neebe, Albert R. Par.
sons, Samuel Fielden, Adolph Fisher, Louis
Lngg and George Engel, being persuaded that
such action on your part will conduce to the
peace of the State.
FIGHT AMONG THE KNIGHTS.
The Times to-day says editorially:
The decision of the Illinois Supreme Court in
the Anarchist case will exercise a powerful in
fiuence on the annual General Assembly of the
Knights of Labor which will meet at Mime
apolis Oct. g. and thereby indirectly ON the labor
movement, and perhaps the very existence of
the order of the Knights of Labor 1t is
intended to bring the matter before the assem-
bly, at the outset and pass a resolution de-
nouncing the decision and demanding the inter
ference of the Supreme Court of the United
States. This move will proceed from the Radi-
cal wing and thus will be an element in the
fight on Grand Master Workman Powdery
The Radicals had some difficulty in passing
their Anarchist resolution at Richmond. Their
hands have been very materially strengthened
during the past year, and they now claim that
they will have majority in the coming conven-
ton.
BIG CITIES THEIR STRONGHOLD.
Reports received by those prominent among
the radicals have elected their delegates in
nearly all the big cities and in many places out
side of the centres of industry. They are very
hopeful not only Of carrying the resolution
in favor of the Anarchists, but also of
defeating the present conservative admnstra-
ton. The Anarchist resolution will be used as
an entering wedge to separate the two factions
more definitely than has hitherto been possible
If the General Assembly is not disposed to al
low the Radicals to rule the latter will withdraw
from the order and attempt to break it up.
